Microgrids are the natural and necessary consequence of distributed energy, electrification mandates, and grid-limitations. Today's communications, sensor, and switch technology is advanced enough to reliably enable systems that would have been impossible a few short years ago.

1. If its weathering steel, keep those drains wide open2. Periodically verify which members are 'FC' over the service life3. When establishing weight limits, don't guess on the thickness of the deck

Greater Houston, just a little context for those that don’t really understand why there are such widespread outages. CenterPoint Energy was still recovering from not one but two, yes two tornadoes that took out at least 10 transmission towers ~4 weeks ago and also took out many distribution lines when #Beryl hit as a catagory 1 hurricane doing much more wide spread damage.Not only did this impact the tornado recovery efforts it also had its own natural (or Act of God) disaster effects which could not be forecasted, or recovered from quickly! Just about the same time many mutual assist utility crews departed they had to deal with this new event.Knowing many of the folks at CenterPoint very well, I can assure you they are working as hard as possible to get service restored asap. We can all help by keeping our trees trimmed and managing growth / vegetation along lines, but nothing can really stop Mother Nature from this sort of thing! Let’s give them a little time!Oh and yes, we too were without power too.#SupportLineWorkers #MutualAssist

"The top line: The artificial intelligence-powered software platform Rhizome announced today the launch of gridFIRM, alongside a $1 million investment from venture capital firm Convective Capital. The “FIRM” in the tool’s name stands for Fire Ignition Reduction and Mitigation, and it is designed to help utilities limit their wildfire risks.The nuts and bolts: The gridFIRM tool is available to utilities in Australia, Canada, and the United States. It uses machine learning to process geographic and historical datasets about utilities’ assets — and to determine their likelihood of sparking a wildfire. Additionally, utilities can use the tool to determine whether mitigation techniques such as insulating bare conductors or undergrounding are the safest or most effective for a specific asset.The market grounding: In recent months, using AI for wildfire mitigation and responsehas been gaining traction. Convective Capital itself is a $35 million venture capital fund solely dedicated to funding solutions to wildfires, which Bill Clerico, its founder, describes as an “existential risk” for U.S. utilities. They cause “bankruptcies, fines, and regulatory actions and [have cost] the industry over $100 billion in the last 10 years,” he said."

Engineers have learned and improved our practice from past failures. There are some good lessons that can be learned in this report.

Ever wonder why birds can chill on power lines without a shock? It's all about not completing the circuit.
